1940s Navy Wool Tailored Jacket – Woven Cream Rope Pattern, Shawl Collar

1940s Navy Wool Tailored Jacket – Woven Cream Rope Pattern, Shawl Collar

A beautifully tailored 1940s jacket in deep navy, woven with cream rope-effect dashes arranged in a broken windowpane pattern. The cut is pure 1940s: strong padded shoulders, a nipped-in waist and a deep shawl collar that curves into an asymmetric, diagonal double-breasted front. It makes an impression the moment you walk in.

The detailing is where it really earns its place. The pocket flaps are cut into pointed tabs with their own buttons, the cuffs turn back neatly, and the fitted back is shaped with seaming through the waist. Wear it with a pencil skirt or tailored trousers, or let it be the sharpest layer in a modern wardrobe.
